Vidu Q3 Reference: AI video generation

Vidu Q3 reference to video generation.

Video is paid per clip from your wallet, no subscription. The studio shows the price before you pay, and top ups start at $5.

Key features

Vidu Q3 Reference produces clips from 4 to 8 seconds at 1080p. On top of that it renders 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4 and 1:1. Vidu Q3 Reference is built by Vidu. On Enhance AI it runs on the same account as every other model, with no separate subscription.

Clip length

Vidu Q3 Reference renders clips from 4 to 8 seconds, and you pick the length before you render. Longer clips cost more because video is billed by length, so rough out an idea short and only render the full length once the shot works.

Resolution

Choose 360p, 540p, 720p or 1080p before you render. A lower resolution costs less, so test a prompt low and rerender the keeper at the top setting. The studio shows the price for the setting you picked before anything is charged.

Input modes

Vidu Q3 Reference takes a written prompt and reference images. Add them in the studio, check the preview and render. Every output lands in your history, ready to download or to pass to another model on the same account.

Aspect ratios

Vidu Q3 Reference renders 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4 and 1:1. Pick the ratio for the platform before you render rather than cropping afterwards: 9:16 for Reels and Shorts, 16:9 for YouTube and 1:1 for feeds. The whole frame is generated for that shape.

Audio

Vidu Q3 Reference can generate sound with the picture, so the clip arrives with audio that matches what is on screen rather than silence you have to fill later. You can still mute it and lay your own voice or music track over the top in any editor.

What people make with Vidu Q3 Reference

A consistent character

The hardest thing in generated video is the same face in every shot. Give Vidu Q3 Reference reference images of the character and it holds the look across a whole scene: the same features, the same costume, the same proportions. That is what turns a set of clips into a story.

A product across scenes

Upload photos of the product and describe each setting, and Vidu Q3 Reference places the same bottle, shoe or device in every shot with its shape and label intact. Build a full campaign of scenes from a single set of studio photos rather than shooting each location.

Style from a mood board

References do not have to be a subject. Feed Vidu Q3 Reference frames from a film, a set of photographs or your own past work, and the model carries the palette, the grain and the framing into new shots. It is the fastest way to match a brand look or a client's reference reel.
